  1. Margaret Tate, RD, MS Hanna Cooper, MPH, PCC, CPCC, ORSCC Sandy Perkins, MS, RD

  2. Leadership • Life Course Model • Diversity • Interdisciplinary • Collaboration • Blueprint for Nutrition and Physical Activity: Cornerstones of a Healthy Lifestyle

  3. MCH Nutrition Training Programs • Grant to the ASTPHND to support public health nutrition

  4. Our health care system is transitioning from one that focuses on sick care to one that is more prevention oriented; • Nutrition services will play a pivotal role in a prevention oriented system; • A large number of nutrition leaders will be retiring and leaving the workforce; and • The future success of public health/MCH nutrition services depends on identifying and training emerging leaders.

  5. Fund 6 universities to provide training in the area of MCH nutrition • University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB) - Bonnie Spear, Harriet Cloud, and Suzanne Geerts • Baylor College of Medicine -Diane Anderson

  6. University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) -Marion Taylor Baer, Liz Adams, Leslie Cunningham-Sabo, Dena Herman, Donna Lockner, and Donna Johnson • Indiana University - Karyl Rickard and Debbie Abel • University of Minnesota - Jamie Stang, Aida Miles and Mary Story • University of Tennessee, Knoxville - Betsy Haughton and Marsha Spence

  7. Sponsor: University of California, Los Angeles in partnership with University of Washington, Colorado State University, Oregon Health Sciences University, and University of New Mexico. • Piloted the Western MCH Nutrition Leadership Network from 1999 – 2002. • Target audience: State and tribal MCH nutritionists from Arizona, California, Hawaii, Nevada, Alaska, Idaho, Oregon, Washington, Colorado, Utah, Montana, Wyoming and New Mexico.

  8. Program Design: -Annual 2-day face-to-face meetings covering: • Networking: “sharing” of expertise, issues, materials, questions, etc., with the other states; • Cutting-edge issues defined by the group; and, • Leadership training (starting in 2002).

  9. Sponsor: Indiana University • Target Audience: Public health and pediatric clinical dietitians from Indiana, Wisconsin, Ohio, Kansas, Michigan, Kentucky, Missouri and Illinois.

  10. Program Design: - Initially provided leadership coaching to participants in collaboration with the University of Illinois, School of Public Health - Annual 2 day face-to-face network meeting and workshop which includes: • Ice breaker • Cutting edge topics of importance to MCH nutrition • Interactive leadership training and activities - Midpoint Conference Call

  11. Sponsors: Joint collaborative effort of MCHB Nutrition Training Programs at: • University of Alabama at Birmingham, • Baylor College of Medicine, • University of Minnesota • University of Tennessee, Knoxville

  12. Partners: • HRSA funded Public Health Training Centers housed in school of Public Health at UAB and UM. • Target Audience: • Application process • Criteria: • Emerging nutrition leader (4 to 10 years); • A Registered Dietitian or licensed/certified nutritionist/dietitian; and • Works in the area of MCH within a state or local public health agency or a community-based organization

  13. Program Design-12 month program, with the option to extend for 6 months to serve in a mentoring capacity for new participants. • Face-to-face meeting (July 28) • Leadership assessment • Group coaching • Completion of online leadership modules • Individual Project • Mentoring opportunity

  14. UCLA has surveyed participants with outstanding results. • 12 dietitians participated in the Midwest Leaders in MCH Nutrition Network Meeting last weekend. • 12 dietitians have been selected for cohort 1 of the Emerging Leaders in MCH Nutrition Training Institute.

  15. Similarities: • All have some leadership focus. • All will weave the Life Course model and cutting edge MCH into their program. • All have developed partnerships. • All have incorporated coaching on same fashion. • Differences: • Target audiences differ. • Selection criteria differ. • Two are face-to-face; whereas one will be online. • Type of partnership varies.

  16. The world is on a fast track and, if we don’t move forward quickly we will be obsolete. The changes that I see in public health are: contracting directly with local community and public health systems and more generalist roles as opposed to discipline specific one.

  17. The time is now to blaze the new trails, because the opportunity may not be there tomorrow.
